---------
A relative newcomer to the progressive house scene, Mike Isai’s nascent production career has already seen a debut on the Nick Warren led, Hope Recordings, via September 2020’s “Pillars to Butterflies” EP. A March 2021 reworking of Shanil Alox’s “Algorithm” for Droid9 illustrated Isai’s remix capabilities, as the US star now debuts on Meanwhile with his twin-tracker.

Opening proceedings, “Home” is a dark and sultry piece that pulsates hypnotically through its near 9-minute voyage with a panoply of textured layers and white-noise effects. Quickly hitting its stride, a pounding kick is accompanied by an immaculately syncopated synth motif that provides the basis for a counterpoint phrase to sit elegantly on top in glittering repetitive pattern. Reaching a rousing filtered denouement at the mid-point, “Home” drops back into a familiar arrangement as all elements combine to impressive effect in the third movement.

Continuing the powerful rhythmic framework of its partner, “87 North” immediately impresses with its 16th note bassline and seismic kick. Another syncopated synth loop provides an imposing trademark production technique as haunting melodies drift over the mid-range, drenched in reverb and white-noise washes. Coruscating pads add further intrigue as the 7-minute piece evolves, coming fully to the fore in a ‘wall of sound’ breakdown, before the second half picks up the pace again with percussive intensity. The juxtaposition of meandering melodic threads and bassline urgency thus creates an impressively woven dynamism.

Another new artist to grace Meanwhile finds Arizona based Brenden LaBonte creating a potent wave of success with his Forerunners moniker. With over a double century of production credits to his name for some of the finest modern dance imprints, Sudbeat Music, Anjunadeep, and Black Hole have all played host to the US artist’s emotive soundscapes. Reworking “Home”, the Forerunners remix is chock full of the trademark soundscapes that characterise LaBonte’s work, with whispering melodies floating atop a powerful beat and ticking hi-hat groove. A relentless bassline sequence adds weight and poise over the 8-minute offering as subtle variations on Mike Isai’s original make their presence felt. Pausing for breath at a spine-tingling mid-point, cadenced bass groove and subtle melodic prowess hit the heights in the latter stages.

New music sees Mike Isai guided home by his north star, accompanied by a shining remix from Forerunners.

Berlin Kreuzberg House XIX - Club Mix III

Ok so, I wanted to do something different with this remix, I've heard a few of the 4/4 proggy remixes going around, which are good I may add,  but I felt that this wasn't the sort of sound I wanted to take it on. 

Trying to keep it in the mood of the rest of the record, I used some 808, 909 & Linndrum drum samples, added some fx, pads & strings to try and convey the emotion of John's vocals.

I will add, getting John's vocals to come through in places was tough as they're quite washed out in the original and a bit distant, which was obviously the effect the guys were going for when making it :)

I'm at a place where I'm happy with how it sounds, it's not gonna be to everyone's taste but to conclude, I hope it's well received :)

Tracklist:
01. Guy J - Aurora (Original Mix)
02. Guy J - Airborne (Original Mix)

Release Info: 
Following his immense ‘West On Mars’ EP on Bedrock last autumn, Guy J returns to his own Lost & Found imprint with two absolutely stunning pieces of journeyman techno. Inspired by the classic trance sounds that he grew up to, Guy J has dug super-deep and returned with something super-special. Musical, emotional, hypnotic: both tracks will take you to places you’ve not explored in years.

‘Aurore’ hits with chunky drum arrangement that’s reminiscent of Deep Dish at the height of their powers; deep, driving and wide enough to carry the weight of the pristine synths, humanised rhythmic textures and melodic weaves, this keeps building until the very end of its epic tenure. Beautiful.

‘Airborne’, meanwhile, is the full trip: almost 10 minutes of locked-in beauty as we glide further and further into a state of unblinkered positivity. Building us up with precision tension, Guy doesn’t even introduce the life-affirming riff until 4.30 but by jove you know about it when he does. Immaculate elevation that seems to come from nowhere; timeless emotionally rich techno like this is universal. Reach for the skies…

PREMIERE : Michael A - Soul Digger (Roger Martinez Remix) [Serendeep]
Buy: https://www.beatport.com/release/aviate/2556396
Release Date : 2019-04-22

Serendeep continues a strong start to their journey by welcoming Michael A to the label for his debut EP. Since first appearing in 2012, the Belarus based artist has risen up through the progressive house ranks at a remarkable rate. A groovy, detailed sound combined with a prolific release schedule has led to support from the genre's elite, including Guy J, Hernan Cattaneo, Nick Warren and Guy Mantzur. Releases on Sudbeat Music, Cid Inc's Replug Records and his own Genesis Music imprint have been recent discography highlights. Now making his much anticipated Serendeep debut, Michael presents his latest EP entitled 'Aviate' alongside a remix from Roger Martinez. 

The lead selection 'Aviate' finds Michael presenting some of his best and most anticipated work to date. Building fluently; warm beats, rhythmic clusters and waves of perfectly contoured bass unite for a smooth free flowing groove. Airy pads and haunting atmospherics deliver a subtle yet powerful shift in emotive energy, perfectly segueing into the main break. Warm and radiant, the centrepiece further advances the narrative with a wall of granular fuzz playing off charming chord changes, before a timely drop serves up an exhilarating finale. The companion piece 'Soul Digger' has been much hyped since being aired by Hernan Cattaneo on his hugely popular Resident podcast. A touch deeper than its predecessor, Michael builds a groovy framework through organic drums, hip swinging rhythms and a quirky, metallic lead. Trippy and brooding in equal measure, the main break proves impactful, escalating tension through symphonic themes and a dark undertone, which generates a bridge into a futuristic final act. 

The lone interpretation of 'Soul Digger' is provided by Roger Martinez who makes his label debut. Revered by both his fans and contemporaries, the Dutch artist has found a home on some of progressive music's top imprints. Guy J's Lost and Found Records and Hernan Cattaneo's Sudbeat Music have become outlets for Roger's creative vision, and his nomadic style has flourished as a result. Now making his much anticipated Serendeep debut Roger crafts a stunning rendition of 'Soul Digger' to round the release out on a strong note. Beginning with punchy beats and redolent rhythms, it's the detail and fluidity of the groove which becomes instantly compelling. Perfectly contoured and full of great character, it anchors what is a sleek, percussive and highly imaginative slice of progressive house. In remodelling the main elements Roger takes the listener on a nine minute journey, resulting in a spirited, timeless piece of music which is under constant evolution.

Launched in March amidst much praise, Serendeep's second release now builds on that momentum, to continue what promises to be a memorable year for the Sri Lankan imprint.

Kostya Outta is back on One Of A Kind with new track, this time in a collab with Max Losev, titled as "Fantasy"! Here we have one strong release, where beside beautiful proggy original, we have remixes from renowned artists such as LADS and Allies For Everyone! Half German, half South African project LADS, started releasing music few years ago, and with their versatile, deep and progressive sounds, they attracted the attention of major labels such as Lost & Found, Rebellion Der Traumer, Click Records, etc. Alias For Everyone, however, is on the scene for a while now. He cooperated with the names such as Miyagi, Solee, Just Her, David Hasert, and released music on Lost Diaries, SOSO, EIN2, which is a testament to his quality work and dedication.

An artist causing a buzz with his multi-faceted productions, Nopi debuts on Proton Music with his twin-track, "Parallel Words". Remixes come from Australian and US stars.

Finding himself allied to some of the most respected modern imprints with a sought-after deep house and melodic techno sound, Nopi has carved out a sizeable reputation for himself in 12 short months after a March 2019 debut for Pipe & Pochet. Since then, music for Nie Wieder Schlafen, Kindisch and Pablo Bolivar's Seven Villas, has seen the Ukrainian hit the ground running. Following up on May 2020's remix of Erdi Irmak for Proton Music, Nopi now returns with a debut EP. The title track is an immaculately crafted affair that bristles with intricate percussive intent while a cast of elegant and emotive, melodic characters mingle and entwine in brilliant sonic patterns. The result is a swathe of filtered arpeggios, textured pads and counterpoint motifs that evolve over a 7-minute piece in magisterial fashion. "Liquid Week" continues the delicate percussive framework as fizzing hi-hats form the backdrop for hypnotic melodies to develop alongside a smooth lead sequence. Hitting its stride with the wow and flutter of tape delay at the breakdown, subtle variations add depth and texture to the track.

Fresh from the launch of their Meanwhile imprint, GMJ & Matter continue to find themselves permanent fixtures in the upper echelons of the underground dance scene. Prolific and talented, the pair's solo and collaborative work has become a central component of the Proton Music catalogue with their "Superposition", "Osmosis" and "Interscope" EPs. Remixes for Andre Sobota, Rudy and Juan Deminicis' "Tao the King" in April 2019, are now complemented by a stunning interpretation of "Parallel Words". Turning Nopi's track into a pulsating progressive house gem, a driving beat and rolling percussive groove supply the framework for white-noise washes and multi-layered pads to sweep across the stereo spectrum. Making its mark in a powerful third movement, echoes from the original cascade through the mid-range to typically mesmerising effect.

Founder of the highly regarded Manjumasi imprint alongside Atish, Mark Slee is a renowned name across the clubs and bars of his San Francisco home with notable appearance further afield in New York and Berlin. With more than two decades experience in the realm of electronic music, the US artist has developed a distinctive musical identity that has seen him feature on an array of high-profile imprints that include Looq Records, Cityfox and Seven Villas. Becoming a regular on Proton Music with remixes for Oliver Lieb, Navar and Rudy, Slee's "Veranda" EP in July 2020 showcased three original tracks full of ingenuity and musical craftsmanship. Returning to remix Nopi, the Mark Slee interpretation is full of the poise and grace that has become such a staple of his work. Building through chunky rhythmic groove, melodic echoes of Nopi's original emerge through a free-flowing electric organ that wends itself through the "Dry Ice Dub Mix" in melodic exploration. Extended delays ripple effortlessly while effects and sub-bass add weight.

Sparkling original tracks and remixes from GMJ & Matter and Mark Slee have Nopi revelling in "Parallel Words".
